Minisode 152: The Thing From Another World (1951)

This week, by listener request, we go back to the 1950s with one of the genre classics. Based on the John P. Campbell story, "Who Goes There?" and would later inspire John Carpenter's 1982 masterpiece The Thing. We get into the comparisons of the film and discuss the context of the looming Red Scare and McCarthyism. We also spend a lot of time talking about dog wrestling. So, something for everyone. 

 

Plus we announce our guests for the April Showdown

Minisode 151: Boys From County Hell (2020)

It's the true story of St. Patty's Day! Saint Patrick didn't chase the snakes out of Ireland; he buried the original vampire under some rocks and that's why we all eat cabbage today because it looks like tiny boulders. Chat is this true? Guess you'll have to listen to this episode and watch this film to find out if that Bram Stoker was full of it. Also, find out if Brian drinks enough to attempt an Irish accent.

Minisode 150: Sharkenstein (2016)

From Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to very smelly Sharkenstein, our patrons having won last week's Showdown have decided to punish us appropriately. From the sick and twisted mind of Mark Polonia comes the tale of Tri-State Area terror. But not really. It's another junk slapdash video to trick high people on streaming using one of the three magic SEOs phrases of shark, Amityville or Bigfoot. We don't like it, but somehow it all ends up in a Chuck Tingle discussion.

Minisode 149: Frostbiter: Wrath of the Wendigo (1995)

One part Evil Dead, one part Michigan, two parts chili. An insane independent film starring the drummer of The Stooges and the Michigan alt music scene of the late 80s / early 90s. We've got punk, rockabilly, country and two songs about chili. Plus a bunch of gags ripped directly from the pocket of Sam Raimi and giant stop motion wendigo from the Harryhausen school of monsters. All this and more in one of the most fun buried gems we've seen in a long time.

Plus we announce our March Victorian films for the Showdown

Minisode 148: Grafted (2024)

By listener request, we watched the Shudder release from New Zealand, Grafted. Brian is sick and Steve is siiiiccck and this film gets wild with it. Weird science and body horror mix with huge logic leaps as a student descends into madness. *hands on hips; school motivational speaker voice* And perhaps she learns, being pretty isn't all its cracked up to be.

 

Plus we reveal our March Horror Movie Showdown Topic.

Minisode 147: Death Rider in the House of Vampires (2021)

What happens when you mix a Wild West stunt show with Vampire the Masquerade and then remove the stunts? You get Glenn Danzig's second feature. Brian and Steve are once again joined by fellow misfit Hallow Ian to talk about Goth Neil Breen. From the baffling perpetual zooms, the lack of anything happening, missing story points and complete absence of soundtrack, it's safe to say, "every frame a mistake." You can bet your fangs on it. 

 

It's time to announce their voting categories for the March Showdown.
